Imagine stepping out your back gate and directly onto the bike trail, with green space creating a comfortable buffer between you and the neighbors behind. Tucked away on a quiet street with very little traffic, this Ankeny home offers a peaceful setting while keeping you close to the interstate for an easy commute around the metro. Sitting on a walkout lot with a fully fenced yard, this 1.5-story home offers nearly 3,500 finished square feet designed for everyday living and entertaining. Step inside to an open-concept main level with soaring ceilings, a spacious great room and a kitchen overlooking the oversized deck and backyard. The main-level primary suite adds convenience and privacy, along with main-floor laundry. Upstairs you'll find three additional bedrooms and a full bath, while the finished walkout lower level expands your living space with a family room, optional wet bar, additional bath and plenty of room to relax or entertain. Outside, enjoy the stamped concrete patio, fenced yard and direct trail access. Add in the 3-car garage, quiet setting and convenient Ankeny location, and this is a home that offers a little bit of everything.
Northeast Ankeny, located between Interstate 35 and U.S. Highway 69, is a suburban and residential Ankeny neighborhood with newer subdivisions and a patchwork of parks and trails. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the NE 36th Street and N Ankeny Boulevard corridor, where local eateries, coffee counters, and service storefronts create a steady daytime hum. Sidewalk-lined streets and contemporary single-family builds define much of the streetscape, with pockets of townhome-style living near retail nodes. Prairie Ridge Sports Complex sets a weekend rhythm with fields, courts, and tournament traffic. For local pillars, Uptown Garage Brewing Company, Main Street Cafe, and Ankeny Art Center add a distinctly Ankeny flavor beyond the big-box grid.
